I hope they don’t hang you, precious, by that sweet neck. Yes, angel, I’m gonna send you over. The chances are you’ll get off with life. That means if you’re a good girl, you’ll be out in 20 years. I’ll be waiting for you. If they hang you, I’ll always remember you.By Doug Mortimer: Thus spake Humphrey Bogart, shunning the love of his life and handing the murderess over to the authorities in The Maltese Falcon. Arguably, it is the greatest MGTOW moment in movie history (the conclusion of A Boy and His Dog is a close second). One wonders if misogyny trigger warnings precede screenings at college film societies. Curiously, the Bogart screen persona was highly unlikely given his background. Like James Cagney and George Raft, two of his partners in crime in Warner Brothers’ gangster films, Bogart was a native New Yorker. He was not a product of the tenements, however. Far from it.Bogart’s stated birth date of Christmas Day, 1899, is doubtful, but we can say he was born more or less at the turn of the 20th Century to a prominent family. His father, Belmont DeForest Bogart, was a descendant of patroons, the original Dutch settlers of New York and New Jersey. His mother Maud Humphrey Bogart, had ancestors who came over on the Mayflower. The Bogarts lived on the tony Upper West Side of Manhattan.

By Author Douglas Galbi:Achieving gender equality today is vital for ensuring that every woman and man reaches her full potential. Yet gender equality has long been of acute concern. In eleventh-century Byzantium, the highly influential political counselor and intellectual Michael Psellos identified as a woman.[1] With his keen understanding of gender advantage, Psellos also strongly advocated for gender equality.Psellos credited his mother with his advocacy for gender equality. Probably many years after she died and at a time when he was in serious political difficulties, Psellos wrote and disseminated a long and influential encomium for his mother Theodote. In this encomium, Psellos declared of his mother:

She became an ornament to her kind and a paragon of virtue for those who came afterwards. She passed judgment from both sides on the feminine and the masculine and did not give one gender the advantage, leaving the other with an inferior lot — that would be a sign of a thoughtless arbiter and a careless arbitration — but granted equal measure to both. And if the two genders differ in the tenor of their bodies, nevertheless they possess reason equally and indistinguishably [2]

Groundwork For The Metaphysics of MGTOW: In this video I cover the topic of whether or not MGTOW are created through evangelism. - There is a mistaken assumption that MGTOW is some organized core of vocal men evangelizing other men to abandon marriage and relationships. This is not true. MGTOW is little but a rally flag; it is a group in the same way that those who hold a driver’s license are a group. MGTOW is a product of women.

By Author Douglas Galbi: Men today endure institutionalized cuckolding through paternity establishment proceedings that systematically employ undue influence, mis-representation, and mis-service. Historically, some couples have responded to social support for cuckolding by establishing home-based cuckolding businesses. Other men have sought consolation in other ways. After his wife Empress Zoe fell in love with a charming young man named Michael, Byzantine Emperor Romanos III arranged for Michael to have official access to the imperial bedroom in exchange for Michael giving him foot massages in bed.With his outstanding masculine beauty, Michael enchanted the Empress Zoe at first sight. Michael was:

a finely proportioned young man, with the fair bloom of youth in his face, as fresh as a flower, clear-eyed, and in very truth red-cheeked. [1]

Michael’s brother was a eunuch who had risen to high royal office. Through his eunuch-brother’s scheming, Michael appeared before the Emperor and Empress. The Empress Zoe was immediately smitten with him:

By Telesur: Damascus, SANA-President Bashar al-Assad affirmed that the objective of the American and western allegations about chemical weapons is to support terrorists in Syria.
President al-Assad added in an interview given to Venezuelan Telesur TV that the solution in Syria should be through stopping outside support to the terrorists and reconciliation among the Syrians.Journalist: Mr. President, thank you for receiving us.President Assad: I welcome you and teleSUR TV in Syria. You are welcome.Question 1: Let’s start directly with the latest developments. Russia has warned that there might be other alleged chemical attacks. What are the precautionary measures that Syria has taken in order to prevent that?President Assad: First of all, terrorists have used chemical materials more than once in the past several years and in more than one region throughout Syria. We have asked the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) to send specialized missions to investigate what happened. And every time, the United States obstructed these investigations or prevented sending such missions in order to carry out such investigations.

'Italians, Canadians, Australians, Belgians, Greeks, Portuguese, Spanish, Japanese, rally behind the insanity that is Washington.And so apparently do the American people, a population stupid beyond all belief.'

By Paul Craig Roberts: Not everyone likes to hear about the threat of nuclear war. Some find refuge in denial and say that nuclear war is impossible because it makes no sense. Unfortunately, humankind has a long record of doing things that make no sense.In previous posts in recent years I have pointed out both written documents and changes in US war doctrine that indicate that Washington is preparing a preemptive nuclear attack on Russia and China. More recently, I have shown that Washington’s demonization of Russia and President Putin, the incessant lies about Russian deeds and intentions, and the refusal of Washington to cooperate with Russia on any issue have convinced the Russian government that Washington is preparing the Western populations for an attack on Russia. It is obvious that China has come to the same conclusion.

Politically Correct Former Vice President Joe Biden (D) spoke recently about campus rape culture and how to prevent rape.

By Jordan Holbrook: Speaking at George Mason University in Virginia on Wednesday, Ex-VP Joe Biden was visiting the campus as part of the It’s On Us Campaign and was joined by 13 Reasons Why start Alisha Boe and the series’ executive producer, Joy Gorman Wettels. Snippets of the talk can be found below:

So, in the first thirty seconds or so he iterates the point “if she is drunk, dead drunk, you are raping her … Consent require affirmative consent”. Well, gee, holy fuck. I guess we all learned a lot here, didn’t we class C-137! Thank goodness we got good ol’ Joe Biden here to tell us this else no-one would ever have known.

'The oxymoron “Jewish and democratic” betrayed the very notion that in a genuine democracy sovereignty resides in the people – all the people, not a select ethno-religious group.'

By Rod Such: The historian Ilan Pappe’s latest work, Ten Myths About Israel, is a useful primer for people just becoming familiar with the Palestinian liberation struggle – but it is far more than that. It is also a valuable tool for veteran organizers seeking to explain cogently and simply how Israel’s foundational myths and ongoing propaganda perpetuate the oppression ofthe Palestinian people.While concise at 192 pages, Ten Myths About Israel points readers to many of the seminal works in Palestinian and Israeli historiography. Those who wish to explore more deeply can thereby obtain other, more in-depth guides.What are the 10 myths? Pappe divides the book into three sections: “Fallacies of the Past,” “Fallacies of the Present” and “Looking Ahead.” The six myths of the past include the well-known saying, “a land without a people for a people without a land,” the conflation of Zionism and Judaism, Zionism as a national liberation movement and the alleged voluntary flight of Palestinians during the 1948 war.

Max and Stacy discuss the ‘total fool’ speculator who bombed the Borussia Dortmund team bus in order to profit from shares falling. They also discuss global debt exploding to 325 percent of global gross GDP. In the second half, Max interviews Alasdair Macleod of Macleod Finance and Goldmoney.com. They discuss America’s financial war strategy and whether or not it has already failed in this war against China.

By Michael Krieger: I’ve been surprised by the number of people who lived in total denial about who Barack Obama actually was throughout his entire administration, suddenly pointing out the ethical and demoralizing implications of his recent decision to accept $400,000 for a speech to Wall Street firm Cantor Fitzgerald. For myself and countless others, the writing was on the wall from virtually day one when he appointed Wall Street sycophants Timothy Geithner and Larry Summers to senior positions within his administration. Then came the policies, which were even more generous to Wall Street than any cynic could imagine. I posted countless pieces on Obama’s cronyism throughout his Presidency, constantly referring to him as an oligarch-coddling fraud, which his record unquestionably confirms.

"The same two faced idiocy that usually comes from these people who are constantly trying to virtue signal. If being drunk and having sex means rape then it goes both ways, they both raped each other, and if that sounds ridiculous that's because it is."Said 5hadowfax.

By Gilad Atzmon: Alan Dershowitz, used to be my arch detractor. He chased, harassed and intimidated professors who endorsed my work. He campaigned against venues that hosted my music. Not that long ago Dershowitz saw me as Israel’s most dangerous enemy. He even, at one stage, complained about my "obscure" sax playing.He did it all in vain. Dershowitz has been bitterly defeated on each and every battle he picked against me. Not a single scholar surrendered to his pressure, not even one withdrew his or her endorsement of my work. They practically just laughed to his face. Not a single institution bowed to his pressure either as he himself admits. Dershowitz has now learned the lesson. The ethnic cleanser enthusiast has raised a white flag.Simon Hardy Butler, a NYC morbid character who writes for the Times of Israel (when he isn't making ‘culinary videos’ that no one watches except his mother) was stupid enough to report this week that Dershowitz ran away when he was asked to interfere against my appearance at Theater 80 on Sunday 30 April.“What do you suggest I do” was Dershowitz’ answer to the Zionist call for action against the“notorious anti-Semite Gilad Atzmon.”

"The Women’s Equality Party clearly doesn’t believe in true equality between men and women”

By Felicity Morse: Philip Davies has hit back at Sophie Walker after the leader of the Women’s Equality Party said she would be running against the Conservative MP in Shipley because the constituency “deserves an MP who will prioritise representing them and the issues that are important to their constituency, rather than using parliament as a stage to play out attention-seeking performances.”The Tory parliamentarian, who has in the past campaigned against “feminist zealots”, hit headlines most recently for suggesting that the Women and Equalities committee, on which he sits, should be renamed the Equalities Committee.Additionally he attracted criticism for filibustering a bill on domestic violence, arguing in a 78 minute speech that the Istanbul convention should be blocked because it was “discriminatory and sexist” as it only focused on violence against women and girls, and not on violence perpetrated on men and boys.

"Everybody thinks there are opposites like good and bad guys in the world, but on the higher levels it is just a game and they are all working together. However, they do have to stick to the rules they themselves have created to keep the rest of society suppressed and make sure that it will not be too crowded at the top."Apparently high finance is doublespeak for theft and corruption.

"Le Pen better watch her back especially that she's now saying France was not guilty of rounding up Jews in 1942. ...The Jews accuse to keep France under their guilt tripping boot, just like they do with Germany. ...She want's a France for the French, not a France for the Jews." Said Nathanael.

“Identifying love
with expressing feelings is biased towards the way women prefer to
behave in a loving relationship… Both scholars and the general public
continue to use a feminized definition of love… Part of the reason that
men seem so much less loving than women is that men’s behaviour is
measured with a female ruler.”1—Francesca M. Cancian in her 1987 book Love in America: Gender and Self-Development

Feminism is bullcrap because
feminists don’t practice it. People talk about the bright side of
ideological feminism, which is this vague, airy-fairy notion of
‘equality’ that is supposed to evoke warm, fuzzy feelings out of people.
Ideological feminism never matches up with practical feminism, which is
a perpetual victim narrative where women will always be in some
conquered state under the Patriarchy. When they see me, men and women
behave differently towards me because they see a man. They will address
me like a child, nor will not address me as a woman. This behavior is
not wrong, offensive, or inappropriate. Going from there, asking me to
treat women differently “because feminism” is about as dumb as asking women to go out of their way to interpret my behavior as something other than masculine, “because feminism”. It’s never going to happen, and honestly, it would feel odd if someone tried.

Introduction by Gilad Atzmon: In February 2016 a friend encouraged me to pay attention to a new Jewish dissident voice, Jonathan Ofir, an Israeli musician who didn’t agree with Zionism. I watched Ofir’s statement , I detected a positive humanist inclination, I could see a glimpse of ethical thinking but I could also easily notice the usual duplicity but was hoping to be wrong. Since, at the time, Ofir seemed to me a novice in the ‘anti Zionist business’ I let him enjoy the benefit of a doubt. I approached Ofir and asked to interview him.Ofir, initially reacted in a friendly and positive manner, he was happy to engage immediately in a phone interview but I actually insisted upon a written one, just to remove any possibility of me changing his words or taking them out of context. Ofir, once again agreed to a written exchange. However, this changed once he received the questions below. Within a short while I learned from him that he had to decline.

Raging Golden Eagle: Bullshit statistics and the mainstream media going out of their way to suppress the truth. Another example of how the media goes out of their way to hide an inconvenient truth because it doesn't fall in line with the agenda they are trying to push.

"Black people will say things to other black people, that doesn't show hatred, but it shows envy! ...People say a black person is cooning when trying to curry favour with white people." Said Tommy Sotomayor.

By Paul Craig Roberts: Marine Le Pen is the only candidate for the French presidency who represents France. All the rest represent Washington and the EU. Why are the French people so slow to see the obvious facts? France died with Charles de Gaulle. He was the last French president.Washington, of course, hated De Gaulle, because he would not let France be part of the American Empire. He kept France out of NATO. De Gaulle understood that NATO was unnecessary as a military alliance, as there was no threat of a Soviet invasion of Europe. NATO was Washington’s way of absorbing Europe into the American empire. Stalin himself had made it crystal clear that there would be no Soviet invasion when he eliminated the neoconservatives of his time who wanted to establish Soviet hegemony over the world. “Socialism in one country,” declared Stalin as he killed off the Soviet neoconservatives.

By Al-Marsad: Why has Lonely Planet – publisher of the popular travel guidebooks – erased Israel’s occupation of the Syrian Golan Heights?Following the 1967 War, 66 percent of the Syrian Golan – a land mass slightly smaller than Greater London – has been militarily occupied by Israel.Its mountainous terrain, forests and rivers means that it is an area of stunning natural beauty, home to a variety of wildlife, including a species of wolf found only in the region. As such, it is no surprise that the Golan has attracted vast numbers of Israeli tourists since its occupation.Indeed, the Golan has long been promoted by the Israeli government and tourism industry that market it as “Northern Israel,” even referring to it as the “Israeli Texas” due to its size. In 1968, just one year after the occupation, the region received 150,000 visitors. By 2005 this figure had reached approximately 1.5 million people.

'Can the world survive the evil that is concentratedin Washington, evil that has the support ofthe governments of the Western world?'

By Paul Craig Roberts: When the gullible and insouciant American public and the presstitutes who participate in the deceptions permitted the Deep State to get away with the fairy tale that a few Saudi Arabians under the direction of Osama bin Laden, but without the support of any government or intelligence agency, were able to outwit the entirety of the Western Alliance and Israel’s Mossad and deliver the greatest humiliation in history to “the world’s only superpower” by making the entirety of the US government dysfunctional on September 11, 2001, Washington learned that it could get away with anything, any illegal and treasonous act, any lie. The gullible Western populations would believe anything that they were told.Not only insouciant Americans, but much of the world accepts any statement out of Washington as the truth despite the evidence. If Washington said it, Washington’s vassals in Germany, France, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Netherlands, Belgium, and Japan assent to the obvious lie as if it were the obvious truth. So do the CIA purchased media of these vassal states, a collection of whores who prefer CIA subsidies to truth.

So we tried that thing called regime change in Iraq, and failed miserably. We tried it in Libya, and now there are now active slave markets in the place. But we satisfied the objective of “removing a dictator”. By the exact same reasoning, a doctor would inject a patient with “moderate” cancer cells “to improve his cholesterol numbers”, and claim victory after the patient is dead, particularly if the post-mortem shows remarkable cholesterol readings. But we know that doctors don’t do that, or, don’t do it in such a crude format, and that there is a clear reason for it. Doctors usually have some skin in the game.

And when a blow up happens, they invoke uncertainty, something called a Black Swan, after some book by a (very) stubborn fellow, not realizing that one should not mess with a system if the results are fraught with uncertainty, or, more generally, avoid engaging in an action if you have no idea of the outcomes.

By Nick Xenophon - AustralianSenator: We are faced today with a question that has never before arisen in our history. From January 1788, when the First Fleet sailed into Botany Bay, to 2008, during the Global Financial Crisis, we've had first Britain and then the USA as both trading partner and strategic ally.

But now China is our largest two-way trading partner in goods and services ($150 billion), our largest export market ($86 billion) and our largest source of imports ($64 billion). And the integrated East Asian economic zone is the world's fastest growing.

So, how do we negotiate the tension between our major security partner and our major trading partner?

China sees as vital to its security the string of archipelagos from northern Borneo to the Kuril Islands north-east of Japan. It has piled sand onto reefs in the South China Sea, creating seven new artificial islands, and has installed missile batteries and radar facilities, giving it effective control over sea and air traffic in the region.

Earlier this year US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said he wanted to "send China a clear signal that, first, the island-building stops, and second, your access to those islands also is not going to be allowed."

By Tyler Durden: It would appear that British defense minister Michael Fallon's comments that The UK could launch a preemptive nuclear strike "in the most extreme circumstances," was not an implicit threat that the deputy head of the Russian Federation Council’s Committee for Defense and Security took lightly. In a terse Facebook posted response, Frants Klintsevich raged:"I think that the statement by the minister of defence of Britain's Michael Fallon deserves a harsh response, and I'm not afraid to push him over the edge.At best this statement should be seen as a certain element of psychological warfare, which looks especially revolting in this context.There is a quite natural question then: what country could be primitively targeted by the UK?If against nuclear power, the United Kingdom, which doesn't have the greatest of territories, will literally be erased from the face of the earth with a retaliatory strike.

By Michael Krieger: The last thing I ever wanted to do was write about France’s likely next president, Emmanuel Macron, but here we are. This post was inspired by a very telling Financial Times article sent to me by a reader, but we’ll get to that in a bit.Most Americans paying attention to global affairs have some conception of his opponent, nationalist firebrand Marine Le Pen, but Macron is likely to be very much a black box. I hope today’s post changes that.Any knowledge you may have about Macron probably comes from mainstream news outlets, which have been uniformly gushing about the socialist-centrist Rothschild protege.

"Prayer cancels promises made by each and every Jew in advance of the coming year, in other words it grants to Jewry a license to lie."Said Ex-Jew Nathanael.

By Jacob G. Hornberger: The best thing that South Koreans could ever do, both for themselves and for the American people, as well as the Japanese citizenry, is boot all U.S. troops out of their country.Isn’t the reason obvious?

If President Trump, the Pentagon, and the CIA succeed in instigating a war with North Korea, guess who is going to pay the biggest price for such a war.

No, not the United States. At the end of such a war, the continental United States will remain untouched, just like it was after World War I, World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and all the other foreign wars in which the U.S. government has become embroiled.The same cannot be said about South Korea and Japan. While North Korea would undoubtedly end up losing a war against the United States (assuming that China doesn’t enter the fray), South Korea will end up as a devastated wasteland. That’s because as it is going down to defeat, North Korea can be expected to cause as much death and destruction as it can.

By Paul Craig Roberts: I have come to the conclusion that capitalism is successful primarily because it can impose the majority of the costs associated with its economic activities on outside parties and on the environment. In other words, capitalists make profits because their costs are externalized and born by others. In the US, society and the environment have to pick up the tab produced by capitalist activity. In the past when critics raised the question about external costs, that is, costs that are external to the company although produced by the company’s activities, economists answered that it was not really a problem, because those harmed by the activity could be compensated for the damages that they suffered. This statement was intended to reinforce the claim that capitalism served the general welfare. However, the extremely primitive nature of American property rights meant that rarely would those suffering harm be compensated. The apologists for capitalism saved the system in the abstract, but not in reality.

Most of us carry smartphones and watch web-enabled TVs without much thought. But the revelations found in Wikileaks’ “Vault 7” release warn that we should consider the sinister capabilities that such devices could lend to those who might abuse them.

Raging Golden Eagle: George Ciccariello-Maher has been saying some controversial things for months, but only now is finally being investigated. What was the last straw? Why did they wait this long? The answer won't surprise you at all!

By Richard Silverstein: In the midst of complaining about the Islamist threat to Israel and the world, Bibi Netanyahu conveniently forgets that his own country enjoys a tacit alliance with ISIS in Syria. It is an alliance of convenience to be sure and one that’s not boasted about by either party. But is not terribly different from one than Israel enjoys with its other Muslim allies like Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the Gulf States.

Bogie Yaalon served as defence minister in the current government till he had a falling out with Netanyahu. Now Yaalon plans to form his own party and run against his former boss. Unfortunately for him, he’s not polling well and doesn’t appear to be much of a political threat.

So Yaalon enjoys the position of having little to lose. He can speak more candidly than the average politician. In this context, he spoke at length on security matters at a public event in Afula. There is always much that I disagree with whenever I read Yaalon’s views. For example, while warning about the danger of favoring too heavily one side over the other, he essentially justifies Israel’s interventionist approach, which largely has favored Assad’s opponents. Nor do I like his choice of political allies–from Pam Geller to Meir Kahane’s grandson.

Zionist Report: This is not 'just a silly song' this contains hatred and it is racist. It is also contained in their 'holy Talmud'. If a Goyim decided to write a song saying 'I'm not Jewish, I'm white' he would be accused of anti-semitism. Why do white people have to put up with this?It's time to boycott their Talmud and their racist literature!

By Mark Dent: There have been several issues emanating from the Australian Football League in the past few months which have underlined just how dominant the feminist narrative is in the land down under. How strange, that a sport which has celebrated masculinity and men for decades is now a leader when it comes to pushing feminist ideology and presenting men as a gender in need of “fixing” or demanding that men respect all women simply because they are women. Yes boys-that includes the drunk women who grab your crotch in the nightclub and beg you to take them home to your bed.Two years ago I wrote an article for AVFM which focused on the absurd and dishonest way in which women are accorded equal status with men for their courage and self sacrifice in war during annual commemorative services.It seems to be an appropriate time to revisit this issue with another ANZAC Day close at hand (25th April) where we honour our Australian servicemen and women.This morning I was reading my Sunday paper when I came across an article by a former football coaching legend, Mick Malthouse. He had written about some of his favourite memories of the ANZAC Day clashes between Collingwood and Essendon (two powerhouse Australian Rules Football clubs.)It was the fourth paragraph which made it hard for me to digest the hot cross bun I had been enjoying. Let me quote it for you.

Men Are Good!: This is the first in a series that focuses on three misandrist theories, Patriarchy. Hegemonic Masculinity, and Toxic Masculinity. All too often the hatred of men is an accepted cultural practice while the hatred of any other group is strictly forbidden. This video looks into the Patriarchy idea and its hatefulness.

By Author Douglas Galbi:“Do I look fat?”“No, no, you don’t look fat. You’re just b..b…beautiful!”“You always say that. Tell me the truth.”Now what do you say? Most men have faced these sort of tests. Experts in the applied literary art of seduction call these tests “shit-tests.” A woman throws crap at a man to test his manliness. Many men today handle the crap clumsily and earn women’s contempt.Men typically don’t shit-test women. If a woman continually, annoyingly nags a rough, crude, unlearned man — a man who hasn’t studied medieval literature — he might turn to her, look her straight in the eyes, and say, “Shut the fuck up.” He would then slowly and deliberately turn back to cleaning and lubricating his power tools. Most men, especially today, aren’t like that.To learn how to handle shit-tests with sophistication and success, men should read closely and ponder deeply Chrétien de Troyes’s medieval masterpiece Erec et Enide.
